TANNOY: Buy / Sell / Trade / Info and … more British / European loudspeaker members’ group
Mr. J.N writes …… “When I ‘came out of the Mana closet’ in maybe late 2000/early 2001, I got a lot of stick for basically the same kind of findings. I still believe that it worked on some things, such as my LP12, but I was deluded into believing it would work on everything when […]
Kurt Cobain loved Abba, wasn’t from Seattle and didn’t invent grunge. Everett True, the man who pushed the singer’s wheelchair on stage for his last UK show, sets the record straight. I was first flown out to Seattle at the start of 1989. I’d been asked by Melody Maker to write a cover story on […]

Dear Howard. Grateful for your views as to whether the captioned extension cable (6-pin in/female & 5-pin out/male) will work with a pair of SR-3 earspeaker into the normal socket of a SRA-14s. Many thanks in advance. I am finding this a very difficult question to answer with any confidence. First, despite many years of […]
My topic today (and I apologise if it might seem like a sermon; not my intention I assure you) is the problem of extremes. By this I mean the high-end system which extends the extremes with, as a consequence, better sounding better AND, worse sounds worse. You must have experienced this surely? In a nutshell, […]

That’s more or less what local Naim dealer and service center told perspective buyer of my approx -9-10 years old cheapest Naim integrated amp. They said it would at very least need $300 re-cap and preferably $600-900 board replacement since the one which is in the amp is totally obsolete. Was it always like that […]

Editor’s introduction Mr. P has been around the block in this industry since 1976. Behind his occasionally abrasive stance he’s got a treasure trove of memories, anecdotes and opinions.

Emporio Records EMPRCD 805 There isn’t a great deal left to be written about albums by John Le Hooker so settling down to listen to this selection of seven tunes, all Hooker songs with the exception of Curtis Mayfield’s ‘It Serves You Right to Suffer’ felt a little predictable.

They embody two completely different outlooks on life and art, which are rooted in the cultures of their respective nations. That’s why every German […]
Patrick Watkins writes …. Hi All, Recently just for fun I purchased a short run of “expensive” speaker cable ($9/ft) and have been A/B-ing it in my system with great delight. I used to believe that there wasn’t much difference at all and that cable was cable. But now I have proven to myself that […]
